Friction Score

One number.
Your team's full health.

The Friction Score is a single 0–100 metric that reflects how much engineering friction your team is carrying right now. It's computed from real signals — CI failures, stale PRs, deployment issues, flaky tests — and updates in real time.

What's measured

Five signal types, each weighted by impact. Computed over the last 7 days.

Critical — ×3

CI Failures

Repeated CI failures on main branches drive the score up fast.

High — ×2

Stale PRs

PRs sitting unreviewed for more than your threshold drag velocity down.

High — ×2

Deployment Failures

Failed Vercel or CI deployments increase instability signals.

Medium — ×1.5

Flaky Tests

Alternating pass/fail patterns are detected and factored in.

Low — ×1

Code Debt (TODOs)

FIXME/TODO/HACK/XXX patterns found on every push.
